Answer 1

They used to study Spanish, but now they study French.

Раньше они изучали Испанский, а теперь изучают Французский.

Answer 2

"They" refers to a group of people who previously studied Spanish but have now switched to studying French.

The phrase "used to" is used to describe past habits or actions that were regular or repeated in the past but have since changed. In this case, it indicates that the group of people had a habit of studying Spanish in the past.

The correct form of the verb "use" in this sentence is "used to." "Used to" is used to describe past habits or states. However, in this sentence, the verb "use" is not necessary and does not fit grammatically.

The correct form of the verb "study" in this sentence is "studied." This is because "used to" is followed by the base form of the verb, which in this case is "study." Therefore, the correct sentence would be:

"They used to study Spanish, but now they study French."
